Help!!!

[Jim A.]

Just got my saw I ordered off of Ebay, well this might not be as good as I thought as I think it may be a 216* (can't tell as the serial tag is scratched ) not a 2171. Is there any way to tell as this thing looks to be peiced together to some point, any thing would be great help.

Ok here are some not the best
on the serial tag you can clearly see the 21 and the next # looks to be a 6 to the best I can see ( hard to see in the pic ) and the last # is unidentifiable.

Did you file a complaint w/Ebay?

The saw either started its life as a 2165 or 2163, and I suspect that scratch on the number plate isn't accidental.....

Anyway, it shouldn't matter much if the P & C is the 2171 (70.7 cc) version, and the carb is Walbro, not Zama.

I had that saw in my watchlist on ebay. It's too bad that some people just can't be up front with what they are offering for sale. So far I have had a decent experience with ebay I just had to learn to walk away when outbid.

Well found out today from a Jonsered dealer that it is a 2163 not a 2171. What should I do, as the saw will work for what I want to do with it, make a project with a 372 BB kit, but it still was not what I paid for. OK I'm done cryin' now any opinions.
